Steam gets its first MMO: EVE Online

Today marks a first in Steam history: EVE Online will be the first MMO offered via Steam.

Steam will offer its users a 21-day free trial of EVE Online. If you decide to subscribe, you will also get a discount.

Valve’s director of business development, Jason Holtman, had this to say: “The team at CCP continues to expand EVE’s universe and gameplay for the legions logging in to play each month, just as we continue to expand Steam’s consumer and developer features.”

I believe that Steam is one of the greatest things to happen to PC gaming; long gone are the days of having to swap disks, let alone drive to the store to buy them.
